MATT THE CAT AND THE JUKE IN THE BACK SHOW
ON ROCK-IT RADIO SHOW #5713 SPOTLIGHT ON
RED ROBIN RECORDS
The Juke in the Back Show salutes one of R&B's greatest unsung
labels, Red Robin Records. Bobby Robinson started Robin
Records in 1952 as a way to expand the business in his
Harlem record store, Bobby Record Shop. He was a natural-born
entrepreneur with a keen ear for musical talent and early
Robin releases focused on local New York talent ranging
from the screaming saxes of Morris Land, Charlie Singleton
and Red Prysock to the smooth teen vocal group sound of The
Mello-Moods, The Velvets and The Vocaleers. Robinson also
recorded the already established Blues titans of Champion
Jack Dupree, Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee. Robinson was
forced to change the name of Robin Records to the now iconic
Red Robin Records, after he was threatened with a lawsuit
from a Country Music Label of the same name. Matt The Cat digs
through the racks of shellac to pull out the most prime sides
from Red Robin Records and load them into your source for 1940s
and 1950s Rhythm & Blues.

AUGUST - 18TH ANNUAL EAST COAST VS. WEST COAST
OLDIES SHOW TO AIR ONLINE FROM AUGUST 1ST TO 30TH
Every year for the last 18 years Rock-it Radio
DJ's Lane Quigley and Bill Green compete with who can
come up with the best oldies songs from opposite U.S. Coasts.
On August 1st the show will be uploaded and Rock-it
Radio Listener's get to vote for the outcome! Prizes
will be awarded to a lucky few that were drawn after
August 3oth. Here is the ballot and information
to cut and paste for your vote.
You don't have to wait any longer it's time for the
yearly bi-coastal battle for oldies supremacy as Rock-it
Radio presents the 18th Annual East/West Showdown.
Since the late 1990's, Bill Green and Lane Quigley have been
facing off every year to determine whether the East Coast of
the West Coast will prevail. So far, the East has been
victorious seven times, the West has won eight contests,
and there have been two draws. Will the East Coast catch
up this year? Or will the West Coast extend its lead?
Your votes will determine the outcome.
The annual East/West Showdown is always a favorite of Rock-it Radio
listeners. If you’re new to the showdown, here's how it works.
You will vote on your favorite tunes for each of 12 Rounds. Lane,
being a lifelong west coast resident, will present twelve rounds
of recordings that represent the west coast. Bill, a New Jersey
native, will match each round with east coast recordings.
There will be a common link between the east and west tunes from
each round. You will keep track of your favorites, and then after
you've heard the entire program you will submit your votes via email.
Five lucky listeners will be selected at random at the end of the month,
and they will receive cool prizes from the Rock-it Radio Launching Pad
courtesy of station manager Bennie Dingo.
You may copy-and-paste the playlist below and indicate your round-by-round
preference, or you may simply send an email conveying your selection
for each of the twelve rounds. Votes must be received by 11:59 pm PDT

REMEMBERING OFFSHORE PIRATE RADIO IN THE UK
In the mid 1960s it was difficult for the youth to actually listen to Rock and Roll in the UK.
The BBC actually ran only a few hours a weekend to provide the young Brits with this outlet.
At night during the week they ventured to even tune into Radio Luxembourg to get there fill,
that broadcast rock and pop around the clock.
To fill this void some venture capitalists decided to bring in commercial radio aboard refitted
radio ships. And anchor themselves just off into International waters off the English coast.
Radio Caroline (named after Caroline Kennedy the U.S. President's daughter at the time)
and Radio London being the most famous. Rock-it Radio has a website dedicated to their ventures
and also have actual radio broadcasts available of
these offshore pirates.
We invite you to check them out our webpage at: http://www.rockitradio.net/pirate.html

FINDING ROCK-IT RADIO ON THE 'TUNE IN RADIO' CELL PHONE APP.
We
have had a few requests from listeners that they couldn't find us on
the popular 'Tune in Radio' App. on Android and PC and iphones. Running
a search of 'Rock-it Radio' will actually list 100s of Rock stations. So, the best way to find us on this very thorough and extensive app. that I love using myself is - run a search on 'rockabilly' - there you will easily find Rock-it Radio listed. Our Tune in Radio App. webpage is also at:

Rockabilly bands looking for airplay
If you or know someone that would like airplay on Rock-it Radio we invite you to submit your press kits to Rock-it Radio. Our website for further information is: http://www.rockitradio.net/airplay.html
============================================ Come tune into the World on your computer!1000s of stations around the world now broadcast online. We have a link to some of the internet top directories to help you find these stations. http://www.rockitradio.net/internetradio.html
============================================
Rock-it Radio Program Webpage Reminder
Remember, if the show that you want to hear is getting close to the bottom
of the list of radio shows, you should tune in as soon as you can. These shows
to have a high audio quality require a lot of internet bandwidth and memory.
And currently we can only afford the
30
latest shows online here at Rock-it Radio.
So, when a new show is put online it knocks the oldest one off the Rock-it Radio
archives page. Usually a show will at least last 16 to 20 days, once it is placed in
the archives.
============================================
OUR SISTER STATION FIRST NATIONS BROADCASTING.
We invite you to also check out our sister station -- First Nations
Broadcasting. And tune into the rather Cool North of the Yukon and Alaska
with our very own Debbie Snowdove!
============================================
Well that is just about it for this newsletter and playlists of our latest
shows. We hope that you enjoy them.
We will do our best to keep these shows on for at least 14
days and hopefully 21 days.
All the best always,
Bennie Dingo
